Peacock Divine Craft Hand-Made Micro-Engraved Ultra-Thin Tourbillon Watch
The Contemporary Emblem of Oriental Precision
Born from the spirit of hand-finished mastery, the Peacock Divine Craft Tourbillon transforms time into a canvas of human craft. In an era dominated by mass-produced timepieces, this limited-edition tourbillon watch honours the irreplaceable artistry of hand chasing, engraving and hand polishing.
Its breathtaking TianGong dial is conceived and sculpted by Professor Zhao Yi, a distinguished contemporary jewellery artist from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology — China’s top-ranked fashion and design university. Revered for bridging ancient metal craftsmanship with modern artistic language, Professor Zhao Yi is an award-winning creator whose signature practice merges lacquer and metal while reviving endangered traditional techniques of chasing and forging. She earned the prestigious Cominelli Prize in Italy (2018) — widely known as the “Venice Biennale Golden Lion of the jewellery world”, the highest recognition for artistic and academic excellence in contemporary jewellery.
For Zhao Yi, chasing is far more than surface ornamentation; it is a meditative discipline that demands absolute mastery of force, angle, and rhythm. On the Divine Craft watch’s delicate 39mm dial canvas, she wields custom-made tools of varying thickness to push, hammer, carve, and polish every single line. Starting as a simple paper sketch, the dial evolves into an intricate topography of light and texture after six months of devoted, painstaking work. Every stroke embodies the soul of Chinese fine craft: precision with soul, discipline with poetry.
At the heart of this limited-edition piece beats the in-house PAX9610A tourbillon caliber, built to a beat rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour, delivering stable, refined timekeeping with an impressive 68-hour power reserve. Featuring 24 jewels within the movement, this ultra-slim tourbillon case measures only 8.9mm thick, a remarkable feat of oriental horological engineering paired with the brand’s multi-layered “Wrapped Vision” case architecture.
Crafted from premium 904L aerospace-grade stainless steel, the watch case balances robust corrosion resistance and silky hand feel. It is capped with anti-reflective sapphire crystal, protecting the artisanal dial while ensuring crisp, glare-free viewing from every angle. The transparent caseback invites you to gaze directly at the moving artistry of the tourbillon movement, letting you witness every sweeping rotation.
Available in two case diameters — 39.5mm and 38mm — it suits varied wrist sizes and personal styling preferences. Paired with a supple fine-grain leather strap, it delivers comfortable everyday wear, backed by 5 ATM water resistance for daily splash protection.
This Peacock Divine Craft limited-edition tourbillon is far more than a timekeeping instrument. It marks a remarkable collaboration where haute horlogerie meets contemporary craft. It is a badge for the discerning watch connoisseur, a tangible symbol of devotion to fine detail, patience, and centuries-honed mastery. For collectors and enthusiasts who deeply appreciate handcrafted horology, it resonates as the contemporary emblem of Oriental precision and poetic engineering.
